Cassie 'I Know What You Want': Diddy's Girlfriend Drops Music Video For Kendrick Lamar-Sampling Track Off 'RockaByeBaby'
Cassie's latest mixtape RockaByeBaby finds Diddy's girlfriend moving in a heavier, more rap-like direction. Nowhere is that more evident that "I Know What You Want," a track that makes it rap-bent clear by jacking one of the most recognizable beats of 2012: the frenetic synth sounds of Kendrick Lamar's "m.A.A.d city." It's a little strange to hear Cassie's straightforward come-ons over beats that once hosted lines like "Bodies on top of bodies/ IV's on top of IV's/ Obviously, the coroner between the sheets like the Isleys," but a good kind of strange (like trying somethin' new in the bedroom, perhaps?)
Check it out below:
The video features the questionable addition of on-screen animation and writing that is reminiscent of a Target ad, but counterbalances it with the solid slabs of man that serve as Cassie's counterparts.
